Not a left turn but an ecological turn for Emmanuel Macron. That’s what thinks
Jean-Christophe Cambadélis, former boss of the PS,
in an interview at Point Saturday. “Emmanuel Macron does not have a left turn in mind. But he is thinking about a new Rooseveltian ecological course. This for obvious political reasons, economic liberalism is not going to be in season. He thus plans to recapitalize his “progressivism” dissolved in the center right, “said the former first secretary of the Socialist Party.
“As on the right, it’s the overflow of presidential candidates [de 2022] and, on the rest of the board, no one emerges, the “new Macron” hopes to rebound. But all of this somewhat underestimates an economy where entrepreneurs are primarily concerned with selling and consumers with the concern of remaining salaried, “he adds, saying that” the return of the social, and to be honest of the people , will be violent with its million more unemployed and neighborhoods where hunger lurks ”.
If Macron “is eager to embark on a new adventure around a green deal French ”, Jean-Christophe Cambadélis believes that this risks precipitating the end of the executive couple that the head of state forms with his Prime Minister Edouard Philippe, from the right.
“The people no longer support the republican monarch”
The former first secretary of the PS judges that the coronavirus crisis revealed “the bankruptcy of the Jacobin state”, which was shown to be “unforeseen” and crushed by a bureaucratization which “reached courtelineque summits”. “It is enough to see the mind-blowing circular from the Minister of National Education for the reopening of schools,” he said, who also points to the “pointillism of the health emergency law”, currently under discussion in Parliament.
“I notice that the French, reputed to be poorly disciplined, respected the confinement instructions. But it is one of the flaws of our bureaucratic centralism. We always need texts that give all the power to the executive “, regrets the former boss of the PS who deduces that France is” not an adult democracy “.
According to him, “the people no longer support the republican monarch, his court and his followers” and sees in the Marseille professor Didier raoult “The new emblematic figure of the protest of the elites, of Parisianism, of the vertical state apparatuses”, in short “the health manifestation of what the aforementioned already said
“yellow vests” “
